Barry was born in San Luis Obispo, Ca in 1983 with a crafty mom and hard working dad. A natural techie who, at the age of 12, was building his own personal computers. It wasn't till his dad brought home a laptop with Photoshop 2.5 that Barry would discover his artsy side. Barry continued using photoshop and began designing websites his first year of high school. In 2004, Barry was given an old OM-2 35mm camera and immediately fell in love with photography. He attended just enough of a college film class to learn how to process film and produce prints in a dark room and it all began. Today Barry shoots on the latest Canon equipment and also utilizes a Mamiya 645AFD for medium format work.
